***** Reed College Class of 2019 RD *****

Is @Frogf1sh‌ okay? Hang in there, Frogf1sh! Wherever you wind up will be lucky to have you.

dude this sucks-- this really sucks. I really thought I had a chance… I’m gonna go order that book now @Proboscis. Really did not see myself staying in state… 8-|

Let’s remain optimistic till we get a definite decision! :smile:

Hey everybody, I still haven’t heard anything. Are you all getting emails? I still have no word, no peep from Reed.

Whoa, you all had to wait so long! I received my email at 5:13 (their time).
Too bad I fell asleep so I couldn’t report & ease some of your worries.
I think I’ll take a position on the list, but will act as if rejected.
Of course I’ll be doing everything in my power to get off that list though :slight_smile:

Edit: was feeling uber optimistic and then someone reminded me the reality of waitlists and preference over full pay students…hope is there, just partially dashed…

@robotrainbow I’m here with you! Still waiting…

I’m still waiting too. I may have to just check back on my emails in the morning.

still waiting also… am kinda convinced that they completely forgot about my application or something

I was wait listed and just sent an email with a new Why Reed essay, an analytical paper, and updates on ECs/awards. The wait list FAQ they sent was really helpful!

@epancotti Damn, that was quick. I likely won’t send anything until the weekend (if I decide to accept a place on the list).

waitlisted at 6:10 PST… congrats to everyone accepted; my sympathies to those rejected; and for yall accepting a place on the waitlist, i hope they accept us all! and more importantly i hope that everyone will end up somewhere they are happy, secure, and welcomed :heart::heart::heart: i’ve only been a lurker on this thread but it has been a delight reading everyone’s thoughts, speculations, and jokes during this stressful time and you are all charming and fantastic regardless of how your college decisions turned out. just rmb that!!

Guys you may want to check your spam folder. I found my email there (or under the promotion tab in gmail)

still nothing from reed

i got waitlisted, So did a friend of mine.

@woteven23‌ As far as i know. His SATs are 2200+. Straight As. He got into tonnes of other places, e.g. Richmond Scholar, NYU Shanghai etc. He is a gap year student though.

Still haven’t received an email. I suppose that means I was rejected as according to their website, financial aid information was supposed to go up on April 1, and I don’t see anything. I really wish Reed would have emailed everyone, and not just a select few…

@zohaibb96‌ did you get your decision? I got waitlisted :neutral_face:

I checked my spam folder as well and have still not received anything :frowning: .

Given that I can’t believe that they are sending out emails at 4 or 5 in the morning PST, my email must be messing with me and not posting incoming messages when they are sent. A wait listed email just showed up.

It is very strange that no one here got accepted after the original bunch on Friday.

@robthehero12‌ if it makes you feel any better, I was accepted Friday and still no financial aid info. Reed Admissions is out of control this year.
